What are the types of linux file systems? I believe there are many people do not understand, today, in order to let you know more about the linux file system, so give you a summary of the following content, let's look down together.

Several commonly used file systems in Linux environment

1 、 ext2

Ext2 is a scalable, high-performance file system designed to solve the defects of the ext file system, also known as the secondary extended file system. It is the most used type in the Linux file system and stands out in terms of speed and CPU utilization. Ext2 has excellent performance in accessing files and can support 256byte long file names. It is the standard file system in GNU/Linux systems.

2 、 ext3

Ext3 is the journaling version of the ext2 file system, which adds journaling to the ext2 file system. Ext3 provides three logging modes: journal, ordered, and writeback. Compared to ext2, ext3 provides better security and upward-downward compatibility. Therefore, in the Linux system, you can hang an ext3 file system instead of the ext2 file system. Ext3 file system format is widely used in current Linux systems. The disadvantage of ext3 is that it lacks the high-speed data processing and decompression performance of modern file systems. In addition, the disk quota issue should be considered when using the ext3 file system.

3 、 reiserFS

ReiserFS is one of the most stable log file systems in Linux environment. It uses fast balanced binary tree (binary tree) algorithm to find free space and existing files on disk. Its search speed is faster than ext2,reiserFS. Like most other file systems, index sections can be allocated dynamically without creating fixed index sections in the file system. Help the file system to adapt to a variety of storage needs more flexibly.

4 、 VFAT

VFAT is a filename system that is mainly used to deal with long files. It runs in protected mode and caches using VCACHE, and is compatible with Windows series file systems and Linux file systems. So VFAT can be used as a partition for Windows and Linux exchange files.

About the type of linux file system which is shared here, I hope that the above content can have a certain reference value for everyone, you can learn to apply. If you like this article, you might as well share it for more people to see.
